North West-based property services firm, The Momentum Group, has proudly achieved B Corporation (B Corp) Certification, joining an exclusive global network of businesses committed to high social and environmental standards.
The certification, awarded by B Lab, evaluates companies across five impact areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. The Momentum Group excelled in the ‘community’ category, with its philanthropic arm, the Momentum Foundation, recognised for supporting numerous charities.
This milestone places the company among just 3,124 UK businesses with B Corp status—less than 0.06% of all UK firms—and one of fewer than 20 certified organisations in the Liverpool City Region.
Co-founders Chris Bliss and Chris Renshaw celebrated the achievement:
“Becoming B Corp Certified is a significant milestone for us. This reflects the dedication of everyone in The Momentum Group to uphold socially and environmentally responsible practices. We are immensely proud to stand alongside other pioneering businesses championing these values.”
The certification crowns a transformative year for the firm, marked by strides in sustainability and employee wellbeing. In August, it published the first annual report for Momentum Contribute, its dedicated arm focusing on people, places, the planet, and professionalism. The company also hosted Liverpool City Region’s second sustainability conference, building on the success of its inaugural event.
In addition to its charitable work, The Momentum Group has calculated its carbon footprint, providing a baseline for future environmental initiatives. With this B Corp status, the firm sets a benchmark for how businesses can minimise their impact while maximising their contribution to society and the planet.
Chris Bliss added:
“Every business has a responsibility to contribute positively to the world, and B Corp Certification ensures we are held accountable to the highest standards.”
This recognition highlights The Momentum Group’s unwavering commitment to sustainability, innovation, and making a lasting difference in its community.
